Due to religious convictions, medical concerns, or personal preferences, a growing number of people are seeking safe, effective alternatives to blood transfusion when they require surgery or other types of medical care.

The Duke Center for Blood Conservation was designed to serve the medical and surgical needs of patients without the use of blood transfusion -- and is the Southeast’s only regional medical center to do so.

Using innovative techniques that minimize blood loss, our skilled specialists can help patients safely avoid the need for blood products such as red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets, and plasma.
